one
occasion
when
Mark
Twain
arrived
in
London
from
New
York,the
Star
thought
the
fact
worth
recording
onits
evening
placard.But
there
was
another
piece
of
news
to
bementioned:it
was
about
the
Ascot
Cup
being
stolen.Theplacard
thus
ran:
MARK
TWAIN
ARRIVES.
ASCOT
CUP
STOLEN.
Mark
Twain,we
believe,never
heard
the
last
of
it.
53.马克·吐温
有一次,马克·吐温从纽约起程抵达伦敦访问,《
星报
》认为这个消息值得登在它的晚招贴上。但是,还有一条消息
也要登上:关于爱斯科杯被盗的消息。招贴是这样写的:
马克·吐温
光临
爱斯科杯
被盗
我们相信,马克·吐温从来也没听说过这件事。
ok?
